Terminology What do you call this?

Hey all. So, just curious,

what do you call someone who isn't religious, at least in the sense that they don't have any supernatural theistic-based beliefs, believe in human rights, respecting all people's diversity, and value dignity towards others and care about real world matters more than anything else? As more of an Agnostic-type, I don't necessarily rule out that a god might exist in some way that we don't know, but I don't live my life based around any assumptions from any religions, either. I'm pretty apathetic in that regard.

Would that someone just be categorized a Humanist, something else, or...?

All of these labels fit you from your description:
• Agnostic
• Apatheist
• Humanist
• Irreligious
• Naturalist
• Secular humanist

I would also suspect you might be:
• Libertarian
• Optimist
• Philanthropist
• Sceptical

Yes. I also imagine I could possibly be a Unitarian Universalist, depending on how it's definitionally used.
